Supercharged VR's

[dr_mat 0]

No denying it - there's a few VRs out there without timing chain problems on high mileage, but it seems to be unusual. (Admitted people don't post up saying "hi my car has done 200k and *doesn't* need cam chains done", but you do hear from a lot of folks having to have it done at that time.) Vince@Stealth seems to say himself that they tend to need doing around the 100k+ sort of age.

I`m based in the UK!

 

The only thing i can think of with the 183k Vento is that it gets Very regular oil changes.

 

Its actually getting its next one on Friday night, ready for a track day on Saturday!

Are the vortech kits 2.5k fitted or is that just them by themselves?

I'm sure that's the price without fitting.

I'd suggest buying a second-hand vortech kit from the US which costs $2000-2500 (£1000-250) which will be cheaper than the UK price even with the shipping and tax added on.

Bit risky though? Dont fancy sending someone that kind of money and praying I get something in return.

 

You not want to sell me yours? (joke!)
